Congregational Care

Youth Group

Our Youth Group gathers every Monday throughout the school year except during holidays. We are an energetic group focused on acceptance and welcome. Each meeting we have special activities for those who need to burn off energy as well as others who like a more quiet time. We share a meal together and always close our meetings with a prayer circle.

Youth Group of for all children from grades 5-8.

Women of Faith

Grow and explore faith topics with women from BCCUCC as well as from other churches and faith traditions. This group selects a book from various genre’s on the theme of spirituality to inspire discussions on what it means to live lives as women of faith. This warm, caring group begins each meeting passing the “heart rock”, asking the question “How is your heart today?”

Meets on the first and third Thursday afternoons from October thru May, at 1:30 – 3:00 in the church library. Contact Jane Tonn at jtonn2@cox.net for more information.

The Giving Plate

The giving plate began in September of 2023 and has been making its way around our congregation. Recipients of the plate receive the gift of what is on it, bake or purchase another food item to place on it, then pass it along to another member or friend of the congregation during our prayer time in worship as a prayer of thanksgiving.

    Lay Visitation Team

    This dedicated group of lay people work closely with Rev. Racquel to stay in contact with many of our communities sick and homebound members. They visit, write cards, and reach out by phone.

    If you would like to join this group, or know of a church friend who could use some prayer, please reach out to Rev. Racquel.

    Bereavement Group

    Anyone who has experienced the loss of a loved one can find support in this group. We welcome anyone to join us – they don’t have to belong to our church. Questions? Contact Betsy Brenner betsybrenner3@gmail.com

      BCCUCC Softball Team

      Our softball team participates in the Barrington All-faith Softball League. This is a casual softball league focused on fellowship and fun. Of course, our team always seeks to with the championship but that come in second to the friendships shared. Contact Tom Kiley if you are interested.
